荞麦水合花粉和花粉管中的被膜小泡

荞麦水合花粉粒和生长中的花粉管中内质网潴泡形成的囊袋状结构较少见,但内质网囊袋中含有丰富的被膜小泡,直径约为100－150nm。刚刚形成的花粉管中,被膜小泡主要来自于花粉粒营养细胞的细胞质。生长中的花粉管的被膜小泡可由高尔基体分泌形成。另外还观察到内质网的碎裂也是荞麦花粉管中产生被膜小泡的一种机制。花粉管的被膜小泡中含有花粉管壁的前体物质,与花粉管的壁融合参与花粉管的生长。被膜小泡可能含有与脂体和造粉质体水解有关的酶,参与此类物质的降解。荞麦花柱和柱头细胞内含物的解体物质参与花粉管的生长。

棉花花粉水合和萌发时超微结构的变化：着重论述内质网和被膜小泡

棉花(Gossypium hirsutum L.)花粉在授粉后水合至萌发时期的营养细胞中贮藏的大量淀粉粒和脂体被动用。超微结构的观察表明,首先是造粉质体中的淀粉粒降解,尔后是脂体。在花粉水合至萌发时期,营养细胞中内质网和高尔基体十分活跃,并含丰富的被膜小泡。内质网的构型发生明显的变化:花粉刚水合时内质网潴泡高度扩张,不同程度扩张的内质网潴泡连续成网状并折迭形成许多囊袋状结构单位,其中包含造粉质体、脂体和被膜小泡群;其后,内质网潴泡形成的囊袋状结构消失,变为分支互通的网状结构;至萌发时,内质网潴泡略为扩张,有些连续成简单的网状,有些呈游离的囊泡状。被膜小泡始终是成群地分布,并与脂体联结,当脂体降解时一些被膜小泡与之融合。根据棉花花粉在水合至萌发时期,营养细胞质中存在独特形态的内质网系统和含丰富的被膜小泡,它们的动态行为及与淀粉和脂体的转化和降解之间的密切关系,讨论了这两种细胞器可能的功能。

FINE STRUCTURE AND CYTOCHEMISTRY OF LILIUM POLLEN TUBES

Growth of the Lilium longiflorum pollen tube in vitro is restricted to a zone extending back 3–5 μ from the tip. Electron micrographs of cross and longitudinal thin sections of L. longiflorum and L. regale pollen tubes reveal that the cytoplasm of the nongrowing region of the tube contains an abundance of mitochondria, amyloplasts, Golgi bodies, endoplasmic reticulum, lipid bodies, and vesicles. In contrast, the growing tip is characterized by an abundance of vesicles and an absence of other cytoplasmic elements. The vesicles appear to be of 2 types. One is spherical, about 0.1 μ in diameter, stains strongly with phosphotungstic acid, apparently arises from the Golgi apparatus and appears to contribute to tube wall and plasmalemma formation. The other type is irregular in shape, 0.01-0.05 μ in diameter, stains strongly with lead hydroxide, and is of unknown origin and function. Cytochemical analysis indicates that the tips of L. longiflorum pollen tubes are singularly rich in ribonucleic acid, protein, and carbohydrate. These findings are discussed in relation to tube growth.     

FINE-STRUCTURAL STUDY ON THE FORMATION OF THE GENERATIVE CELL WALL AND INTINE-3 LAYER IN A GROWING POLLEN GRAIN OF LILIUM LONGIFLORUM

At the end of mitosis in the lily pollen microspore, the fan-shaped cell plate gives rise to a cell wall delineating a hemispherical cell. At first, the cell wall of the newly formed generative cell and the intine-3 layer of the pollen grain wall are inseparable. Gradually, the wall of the generative cell near the pollen grain wall becomes thicker and wall segments are formed between the thickened zones, and these make a network system by which the generative cell becomes suspended and separated from the pollen grain wall. After the separation, the intine-3 layer is formed inside the intine 2. The generative cell wall and the intine-3 layer are formed by coated vesicles, polysaccharide particles and rough ER.     

Ultrastructural research on cell wall regeneration by cultured pollen protoplasts of Lilium longiflorum

Summary Protoplasts from pollen grains of Lilium longiflorum regenerate amorphous cellulosic cell walls in culture, during which some precursors of cellulose are polymerized, thus producing progressively harder cellulosic cell walls as the period of culture continues. It is presumed that the components of the cell wall regenerated during 1 week in culture differ from those of the intine of the pollen grain wall. The regenerated cell wall is formed by means of large smooth vesicles; in addition, numerous coated vesicles and pits aid in wall regeneration. The pollen tube that germinates from the 8-day-old cultured protoplast has numerous Golgi bodies and many vesicles which build the pollen tube wall. The tube wall has two layers just like a normal pollen tube wall.     

The growth of the grass pollen tube: 1. Characteristics of the polysaccharide particles (“P-particles”) associated with apical growth

Summary Numerous polysaccharide-rich particles (P-particles) occur in the tip region of growing grass pollen tubes, where they apparently contribute to the extending wall. In other families the corresponding bodies have been shown to originate from dictyosome activity during pollen tube growth. However, in the grasses the main synthesis precedes anthesis; the P-particles represent up to 30% of the reserves of the vegetative cell of the dormant grain, numbering over one million in the pollen grain of rye. Their membranes are incomplete. The polysaccharide content, which is initially coarsely granular but becomes microfibrillar with hydration, is readily extracted with ammonium oxalate, and is probably pectic in nature. Simple methods for isolating the particles in relatively pure populations are described. Hydrolysis yields principally galactose, arabinose, glucose, and rhamnose. Apart from proteins derived from the original bounding membranes, a protein fraction is tenaciously bound to the polysaccharide. Isolated P-particles move anodically in an electrical field, and the possibility that their movement from the grain to the tube tip during growth depends on a potential gradient, already demonstrated for lily pollen tubes, is considered.     

The growth of the pollen tube wall in Oenothera organensis.

The growth of the pollen tube wall of Oenothera is effected by the expulsion of fibrillar material from the cytoplasm into the developing wall. This material may also be seen in the cytoplasm, contained in membrane-bound vesicles. It is not clear how the content of the vesicles is discharged, but it appears not to involve the participation of microtubules. The source of the cytoplasmic fibrillar bodies depends upon the stage of development of the pollen tube. The earilest growth is derived from the inclusion into the wall of vesicles containing pre-formed materials present in the grain on pollination. During the next stage of growth the wall is derived from the content of double-membraned inclusions also present in the pollen. The content of the former vesicles is not so similar to the wall as the latter, but intermediates between the 2 types of vesicle may be seen in the cytoplasm, indicating that the former are formed from the latter. Most of the tube wall is derived from the products of dictyosomes in the pollen grain or tube. These dicytosomes are few in number and they must be exceedingly active. This, and the observation that dictyosome vesicles are frequently associated with banked complexes of mitochondria, indicates that some steps in the metabolism of the vesicular content, perhaps phosphorylation, take place distant from the dicytosomes. These different sources of fibrillar material presumably permit the rapid starting of tube growth, without any attendant metabolism. However, it would be impossible to include enough pre-formed wall material in the grain to enable the full growth of the tube, so once started, it seems that the tube then relies on the elaboration of simple reserves for the contruction of its wall. These reserves are likely to be held in the pollen, and may be the large numbers of starch grains characteristic of the pollen cytoplasm.     

POLLEN TUBE-SYNERGID INTERACTIONS IN PROBOSCIDEA LOUISIANICA (MARTINEACEAE)

The ultrastructure of the synergids of Proboscidea louisianica was investigated from just before fertilization until 48 hr after pollination. It was found that the cytoplasm of one synergid consistently begins to degenerate before arrival of the pollen tube at the embryo sac, and that it is always this synergid which receives the pollen tube tip and its discharge. The other synergid (persistent synergid) remained unchanged throughout the study period. Polysaccharide vesicles of pollen tube origin were observed fusing with the pollen tube wall as well as contributing to cell wall formation of the degenerate synergid. In one ovule (48 hr after pollination) two pollen tubes had entered and grown the length of the micropyle, but only the first tube penetrated the degenerate synergid and discharged normally. The second pollen tube was abutting against the persistent synergid, but had not entered or discharged. In another exceptional case (18 hr after pollination), a pollen tube had grown the length of the micropyle, but did not discharge, or enter either synergid. Both synergids of this ovule were observed to be completely intact. It is concluded that synergid and pollen tube cytoplasmic degeneration is the result of a very specific interaction between these two cells and that this degeneration is probably a prerequisite for normal pollen tube entrance and discharge into the embryo sac, and for male gamete transfer to the egg and central cell.     

Germination of Monocolpate Angiosperm Pollen: Evolution of the Actin Cytoskeleton and Wall during Hydration, Activation and Tube Emergence

The monocolpate pollen grain of Narcissus pseudonarcissus L.has two preferred sites for tube emergence, one at each endof the colpus. While the cellulosic microfibnls of the innerlayer of the intine are disposed circumferentially in the centreof the grain, the microfibrils in these terminal sites are shorterand randomly oriented Soon after the beginning of hydration,inclusions of the vegetative cell begin movement, firstly ina rotatory manner, and then in a pattern focused on one or bothgermination sites, where the intine bulges as hydration progresses.These changes are associated with the evolution of the actincytoskeleton. Actin is present in the unactivated grain in theform of fusiform bodies. During hydration these dissociate toform finer fibrils, initially randomly disposed. Then, correlatedwith the change of the pattern of movement in the vegetativecell, the actin fibril system becomes polarized towards thegermination sites, where shorter fibrils accumulate. Callose,absent from the ungerminated grain, is deposited within thecellulosic wall in these locations, forming a shallow dome whicheventually develops into an annulus subtending the inner calloselining of the emerging tube. The transition to cylindrical growthis associated firstly with the development of zonation in thecytoplasm of the vegetative cell, with the tip occupied by apopulation of wall precursor bodies (P-particles) and a denseaggregate of short actin fibrils; and then with the establishmentof the ‘inverse fountain’ pattern of movement characteristicof the apical part of the extending tube.
